>Description:
StartX using KDE interface.
Set up any KDE screensaver with password protection.
Wait for screensaver to come on.
Attempt to re-enter desktop by entering your password.
You can't re-enter as it doesn't seem to be hooked up
to the password database.
>How-To-Repeat:
Use any KDE screensaver with password protection.
Allow screensaver to come on.
Attempt to re-access desktop by using your password.

>Fix:
Somewhere we are either not hooking KDE up to the FreeBSD passwords
for the user accounts OR perhaps, KDE can't read these password files?
